In less than an hour the pavement peters out and dunes take over, rippling and shifting like an inland sea. The transfer by Girafatur positions you at the edge of that motion, dropping you off at the tent-restaurant Chico do Caranguejo where the smell of grilled crab and the sound of the surf announce Cumbuco as a place defined by movement.
